		Herb sat at one end of the table, with several members of the paper's editorial board, including a man whom I think was the general editor.

		The entire paper should be encased in a fl border in further recognition of the decline of journalism, in general, and the Chron, in particular.
		If Herb is to be the ultimate definition of a Chron journalist, then we should coin a whole new designation for the current group.

Not since the teacher's pet in English 101 read her theme aloud, have we been exposed to such eloquent phraseology.
